Hired Attorney Andrew Dorisio

As the owner of a very small business I have often felt overlooked and undervalued by other attorneys. Mr. Dorisio is truly an advocate, and has helped me not only maintain but fight for my brand investment. His ability to communicate the complex issues and language involved with trademarks at a simpler level is remarkable, rare and greatly appreciated. I highly recommend him for any company that needs support in this arena.

Chuck is very knowledgeable in the area, very diligent and thorough. He has a very calming influence in a field that has a lot of angst for the client. He was a calming influence on me. He knew what was coming at all times and prepared me appropriately. He is an excellent attorney and a good person.

Hired Attorney Leonce Richard III

Attorney Leonce Richard has some outstanding reviews, therefore, I felt comfortable hiring him. However, I am at a complete puzzle as to how anyone involved in a court case could hire him and be pleased about it! He is legally knowledgeable, however, he does NOT belong in the courtroom. He barely utters any verbal points or support for his client. Never preps his client for what might happen, how to answer questions, etc. His legal knowledge is good & he has been an attorney with Dickinson Wright PLLC for some time and that's where it ends. In my divorce, I was sued 4 times by my ex-husband. With each trial, Mr. Richard knew & remembered less and less about the initial divorce until the 4th trial when he literally sat there and uttered NOTHING in my defense. By the time of my 4th trial, EVERYTHING I was awarded in the first court trial was taken away from me because of so many points that were never covered & reinforced since the initial trial. Again, does not belong in court!

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
